Baby Seedlings Journal

Day One in the cold frame

You can see the upper right pallets of seedlings are doing mediocre. It appears the tomatoes may survive and 4 lonely cucumber plants appear to be okay. I started those seedlings too early and just had them on the back porch, covering them in a blanket at night. I moved them to the cold frame after stapling the plastic back up. I got them some room-mates on Wednesday.

For my records, and your amusement:

*seeds are planted left to right in egg cartons. Unless noted, they are organic and heirloom. Most seeds were purchased for 10 cents a packet on clearance last year. Yay!
